THE Kyriakos Mitsotakis has shown so far that the “election sirens” do not move him. He ruled out the possibility of setting it up from the beginning early ballots in the spring, while the “baths of the people”, which are respected by all prime ministers, would not allow such a move in the summer. For this reason, after all, he has said that the popular verdict will be requested in the late spring of 2023.
There is a question in the wells of the deputies of all parties. “How likely is it that early polls will be set up in the autumn?” The big relief package announced by Kyriakos Mitsotakis for the electricity bills together with the retrospectives had a strong “electoral aroma”. Nevertheless, the scenario that wants Kyriakos Mitsotakis to use this year’s TIF as a “pre-election balcony” from which he will give the signal for a new four years not confirmed. In Maximou they believe that the announced support measures, the good course of tourism, the increase of the minimum wage, the reduction of contributions and ENFIA will give another air to the majority and a prospect to reach until the end of her constitutional term. It will certainly greatly relieve government MPs of the “murmur” of their constituents.
The dilemma, however, exists even in blue executives. Should Kyriakos Mitsotakis use the momentum to lead the country to elections even in October or wait for the results of his policy to be seen in the pockets of households and businesses? At the beginning of the new year, it is reminded that retirees will also see their monthly income increase after many years. And it is another weapon in Maximos’ quiver.
If the war in Ukraine stop and fuel prices Kyriakos Mitsotakis begin to fall and stabilize at normal levels there is no reason to hurry. He has made one institutional profile which he will strengthen by completing his term. If, however, things in the economy remain difficult and ND continues to have a small but steady decline there is no reason not to take advantage of the situation since SYRIZA continues to have no significant polling benefits. In the event that natural gas and electricity continue to pull uphill the coming winter will not be easy at all despite the indirect ceiling of 12 months. Given the fact that the EU will continue to move like “Sluggish ocean liner” as the Prime Minister characteristically stated. The narrative of setting up early ballots almost eight months ahead of schedule can be found due to the global economic situation and the unbearable social pressures that exist across Europe The “fund” will be made in any case at the end of August where there will be a there is a clear picture.
The ballot box game will be played in the “gray zone” with the prime minister trying to repatriate all those who trusted him in July 2019. The scales will be on whether the wave of accuracy will not cover the new cycle of tax exemptions in which the government proceeded. Fresh in autumn will be the memories of the economic euphoria that will have caused the best summer for domestic tourism, as the first data show.
The equation must also include second ballot boxes which unexpectedly will be set up a month later, after the simple analog it will be very difficult to get a majority. The political time until autumn is long and dense and the summer counts will play an important role in the final decisions. With the gaze of Herod Atticus being so focused in the percentages of SYRIZA and KINAL. The closure of the political pending issues, the provision of clean time and the holding of the ND conference give space to Kyriakos Mitsotakis to make the maneuvers that he considers necessary.
